I've got a 44MB Portable that I've been pretty happy with.  Bernoulli
now makes a 90MB setup (but not in the Portable, for some strange
reason).  There are a number of 'removable hard drive' vendors
(Bernoulli isn't really a hard drive -- it's a proprietary
technology).  I can't speak to the others, but I've been more than
happy with the quality of the product (5 year warranty on media, for
example) and the support (which I only needed to call once, to ask a
question -- the equipment itself has been flawless).

The one big drawback to Bernoulli is that they are somewhat more
expensive than other removable alternatives, from the prices that I've
seen.
